Hi again, I thought it might be worthwhile to upgrade to AucTeX 11.84 - just to make sure it still works. And wouldn't you know it, it doesn't quite. The "LatexSweave" command is now broken.
I get the following error message: ---------------------------------- Running `LatexSweave' on `article' with ``pdflatex " -interaction=nonstopmode\input{"article"}"'' This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.30.6-2.2 (MiKTeX 2.5) entering extended mode ! I can't find file `-interaction=nonstopmode'. <to be read again> \let <*> -interaction=nonstopmode\input {article} Please type another input file name: The problem seems to go away by turning interactive mode on (C-c C-t C-j), but I don't really think I want this. So, some investigative work reveals a change in TeX-expand-list, namely: In 11.83 it was: ---------------- ("%(mode)" (lambda () (if TeX-interactive-mode "" "\\nonstopmode"))) In 11.84 it now is: ------------------- ("%(mode)" (lambda () (if TeX-interactive-mode "" " -interaction=nonstopmode"))) Customizing TeX-expand-list back to the way it was under 11.83 seems to fix the problem. I'm running Miktex 2.5 and haven't been able to find any reported problems with pdflatex. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Being a lisp neophyte I suspect that there are improvements which could be made. In particular, I would be interested in improving the "compile cycle" (e.g. Sweave -> Latex ->Bibtex -> Latex -> View). I read that AucTeX tries to guess the next command, which has always worked well for me, except for here (its different to what AucTeX is used to). Any suggestions would be greatly welcome.

The only thing that has not satisfied me (which is not a reflection on David's efforts) is that they are somewhat separate from AucTeX (some hard-coding is involved). I've played around with AucTeX and ESS a bit today and am happy to report that I have come up with an alternative approach, which may be useful for some of you. The only piece of code required in your .emacs file is the following. (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.Rnw\\'" . Rnw-mode)) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.Snw\\'" . Snw-mode)) ;; Linking ESS with AucTex (add-hook 'Rnw-mode-hook (lambda () (add-to-list 'TeX-command-list '("Sweave" "R CMD Sweave %s" TeX-run-command nil t :help "Run Sweave") t) (add-to-list 'TeX-command-list '("LatexSweave" "%l \"%(mode)\\input{%s}\"" TeX-run-TeX nil t :help "Run Latex after Sweave") t) (setq TeX-command-default "Sweave"))) The first two lines may already be in your .emacs file. Since Snw-mode is a synonym (at least for now) to Rnw-mode we only need to modify the Rnw-mode-hook. The code above adds two new commands to "Command" menu when you visit a .Rnw (or .Snw) file. These new commands are * Sweave: Sweave the current file and produce a .tex file (the new default for .Rnw files) * LatexSweave: Run "latex" or "pdflatex" on the .tex file Both of these commands can also be invoked when pressing C-c C-c inside a documentation chunk in the .Rnw file - this is similar to the way you would process a .tex file. Note: Sweaving is done by invoking the Sweave.sh script inside the \bin folder of your R installation (comes with R). Note: latex or pdflatex is invoked based on whether "PDF Mode" is enable" (see "TeX Options" under the "Commands" menu). Note: Once the .tex file has been successfully and fully processed (you may need to run bibtex and latex several times - in the usual way), a further press of C-c C-c will prompt you for "View" which will give you the default viewer (pdf or dvi) - all in the usual AucTeX compile cycle. I have only tried this under the following configuration: * Windows XP (SP2) * GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2007-06-02 on RELEASE * AucTeX 11.83 * ESS 5.3.4 Any comments are welcome.
